Climate Change Triggers Dangerous Smog

Douglas McIntyre, Editor-in-Chief at Climate Crisis 24/7, highlights research from MIT News showing how global warming worsens ground-level ozone pollution — a key component of smog. He explains how this creates a vicious cycle where climate change exacerbates air pollution, which in turn harms human health, causing thousands of premature deaths annually. McIntyre also points out similar feedback loops, like the impact of climate change on cocoa crops, that worsen environmental and societal challenges.
